- Biting Bullets Lyrics / with translationsDon't you wonder
Is anyone that strong
It takes me under
Believing what I'm seeing
I get so tired
Of watching friends go down
The hungry tiger
For all who never began
Biting bullets
Biting the clouds
Biting bullets
Biting the clouds
I saw the show
Shaking all the babies
Should I believe
The parade of clever lies
Shadow of light
In the shadow of death
There is no difference
For all who never began
I loose myself like anybody else
But I'm not so strong to make it in the end
I need some answers when
The day comes crashing down
But it's all over when there's
No one to be found
Is anyone that strong
It takes me under
Believing what I'm seeing
I get so tired
Of watching friends go down
The hungry tiger
For all who never began
Biting bullets
Biting the clouds
Biting bullets
Biting the clouds
I saw the show
Shaking all the babies
Should I believe
Shadow of light
In the shadow of death
There is no difference
For all who never began
I loose myself like anybody else
But I'm not so strong to make it in the end
I need some answers when
The day comes crashing down
But it's all over when there's
No one to be found
